How to handle data interchange using ISO8583

Post by Suhendri »

Hi,

Is there any of you ever tried to make a parser for ISO 8583 data format using PHP ?

Or do you know any links which tells such things?

I'm currently developing an application (using PHP), and the application should have a modul to transfer/receive data from other system. Data format from other system using ISO8583.

The format is spelled out a bit here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8583

Thanks for the links... :)

Beside the information about ISO8583, i need info about encryption the message/packet using ISO8583. One of my friend said the packet encrypted before send to another host.

Is that true or the packet/message send by plain text/message like if we retrieve the message from POP server ?

I'm totally blank in ISO8583, desperatelly needed help.. :cry:

I suspect that the encryption is outside the scope of the standard.. although I haven't read the specification too deeply. I would consider talking to the provider of this information.
